Varietal

Gruner Veltliner

After decades of obscurity in the United States, Grüner Veltliner, from Austria, has had a surge of popularity after being championed by top American sommeliers.

One of the reasons for its popularity is its amazing pairing abilities. Medium bodied and refreshing with stone fruit flavors and a distinctive peppery kick, Grüner Veltliner pairs with everything from poached salmon to roast chicken to crisp green salad. Like Chenin Blanc, the best Grüners have enormous aging potential, but can be quite expensive.

Region

Weinviertel

Large wine producing region in northeastern Austria with a continental climate and topography that is flat, fertile and relatively dry. Wine growing in the region is dominated by two major factors, the diversity of soil and diurnal temperature variation (cool nights and warm days that allow grapes to fully ripen yet retain racy acidity). The northern part of Weinviertel predominately grows cool climate varietals, such as Gruner Veltliner, while the warmer southern part is dominated by light red varietals, primarily Zweigelt.
